From June 29, 1999, until June 30, 2001, the chief executive officer of a municipality may certify in writing to the president of the Connecticut Lottery Corporation that a “Powerball Emergency” has occurred. The president shall independently verify the existence of such emergency and upon making such determination may order a suspension of sales of Powerball tickets in that municipality for a twenty-four-hour period. Such period shall commence on the next succeeding day of Powerball sales. For the purposes of this section, a “Powerball Emergency” shall exist only if it is found that the sales of Powerball tickets are so great as to impede traffic, limit the movement of emergency vehicles and equipment and create a risk of imminent breach of the peace and the threat to public health and safety.
